Quick Artwork by ASP update

The aspiring artist has sold 2 of her drawings.  Does this mean that she is aspiring no more? Maybe she thinks so because she refuses to join any art contests that have been recently proposed to her.

At any rate, going forward she will be personally posting and blogging about her artwork here. Stay tuned!

Betty Boop

 

This was drawn by the artist for her cousin once removed who loves Betty Boop along with a sweet, personal note that’s been removed for this post. The recipient has an assortment of Betty Boop items (a jacket, earrings, purse, etc) but likely doesn’t have this watch. We’ll have to send her one to add to her collection.

This is the latest from ASP.  She is now in art class and anime club so perhaps this is a by – product of those recent developments.

She’s not pleased with the neck size whereas I would be more concerned with the arms. What do you think?

So the intern moved to a charter school and now has the opportunity to take art classes to improve her craft. Remember the days when art classes were the rule and not the exception, showing the fun side your history and math classes. But I digress.

Her most recent project for school was to create a cereal box. Of course she went with this…

This was the initial drawing before she enhanced it in class using photo-shop. Check back later to see the photo-shopped version.

Relaxation Day

Relaxation Day is a day to kick back and do nothing. Ahhhh! What a great day.

The stresses, the hustle and bustle seemingly consumes us, every day of the year. Even Sundays are no longer days of rest and relaxation. There never seems to be a day to just kick back and relax.  For those us with a hectic lifestyle, Relaxation Day is a day to look forward to. It provides a break from the madness of your busy work and personal schedule. Todays is the day to enjoy either doing absolutely nothing, or partaking in your favorite relaxation activity.

Avoiding stressful activities today is the rule. For example, if golf is your favorite hobby, yet it can cause you stress, then make plans to play golf another day. Spending the day in a hammock is a far more appropriate activity.

 

Top Ten ideas to enjoy on Relaxation Day:

  • Do nothing today
  • Go to a Spa
  • Go fishing
  • Play a round of golf(caution: not always relaxing)
  • Lounge around in a hammock
  • Take a bubble bath
  • Spend the day at the beach
  • Go to the movies
  • Do a little gardening (no heavy duty work, though)
  • Have a picnic in the park
